Originally the first tomatoes imported to Europe were yellow. Since they looked to them like “apples” then they were called “golden apples” (in Italy). Spanish borrowed the Aztec word for it… tomatl. With potatoes the original word was “papa”, commonly used in Latin America and the Canary Islands but the Catholic Church which was very powerful back then objected and it was then called “patata” in most of Peninsular Spain. I loved the video. Thank you.

I am not a native speaker of Spanish or Italian but I am a native speaker of French. French just so happens to have so much similar vocabulary with Spanish and Italian. I started learning Spanish when I began secondary school at the age of 12. I didn't know at the time that Spanish is really similar to French and very instantly I realised the similarities. I live in an English speaking environment so very quickly I was doing better than everybody else in my own class since nobody in my class spoke a language more similar to Spanish. Spanish also instantly became my best subject in school. When I was 16 I studied in Spain for a month and I got the chance to speak to locals in Spanish and I was quite good at it. I'm 18 now and still learning Spanish. I also began learning Italian when I was 16 through Duolingo since I love Italy and yeah I'm also still learning Italian to this day and have also already seen many similarities between French and Italian. I was 14 the last time I was in Italy but I really hope to go back there and speak the language. Some people these days are jealous that I can speak both English and French fluently!

Italian and Spanish are to forms of vulgar Latin; the main difference I think it comes when Spanish have added a word from a different language like Arabic; Taino, or any of the other American tribes they came into contact with. We think of words as being from the Spanish Language, but a lot of words have origins in a different Language so it would make sense that they would be a lot different than the Latin word.

In Italian there's the word "sugo" which is similar to jugo and it means "sauce". We say "sugo" just when we indicate the sauce we use for pasta. We call it "pasta al sugo" or "pasta al pomodoro". They are synonyms. The word for "juice" is "succo" which is similar to "sugo", but it indicates strictly fruit juice (juice which is not made from vegetables and is meant to be enjoyed while drinking it instead of putting it into food).

One big difference between Italian and Spanish is that Italian has a big difference between long and short sounds and syllables, whereas Spanish really doesn’t differentiate that much. That makes Italian more “bouncy” sounding and Spanish more even, a little bit like an engine.

The Spanish language borrowed the word tiburón from the Carib Indians(Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico etc), and, later, the English borrowed tiburón from the Spanish and used it for about 100 years. In the late sixteenth century, the English borrowed the word "xoc"(pronunciation: shock) from the Mayans and it became the English word "shark".

I was surprised when she said "cassa". it clearly is a "scatola". we also use "cassa" for "registratore di cassa", in english: cash register

En español también existe escualo y la palabra "escuálido" que se dice de los muy delgados quizá por semejar las costillas a las bránquias de los tiburones o escualos.

[@AIEarth999]

The Italian word for shark comes from the latin word squalus. And tiburón comes from the Carib. Natives itself so it has no latin origin.

[@deathcard2003]

Andrea from espain is the best. ❤

Tomate is like that in Spanish because of colonization, since tomatoes were from central america and the word itself is a loanword from Nahuatl “tomatl”

8:51 The word "Tiburon" comes from Spanish interaction with the Carib Indians who called them "Tiburn". It explains why it's different from Italian. Also the word Tiburn was borrowed by the English from Spanish and used for about 100 years before adopting xoc from the Mayans, later evolving into shark

[@jesusdavis2941]

It's more likely it comes from the taino languages. Columbus arrived on his first voyage to the Bahamas, Cuba and Hispaniola, mostly taino territory, there's still a peninsula called Tiburon on this last island, and it's documented the use of the word at that early stage

[@nyctjm23]

Then what did the Spanish called a shark before they encountered the Taino?

[@beachyv16]

@@nyctjm23 I think escualo is another word for shark in Spanish and that probably comes from Latin because it's more similar to the Italian Squalo

Squalo exists in Spanish too in the form of escualo, but it isn't used as much as tiburón. Though I don't know the etymology of tiburón, it is similar to Portuguese tubarão and I think some old French uses a similar word too

@Mithra Bueno Mirtha, no se enoje. Acá en Argentina está lleno de gente de apellidos italianos, costumbres italianas, gestos con las manos y formas de ser parecidas. De hecho muchas de las palabras que se usan provienen del italiano como "laburar". Es obvio que no es lo mismo Buenos Aires que el interior profundo del país. Yo soy de Córdoba, en donde hay muchos descendientes de Italianos pero no son la mayoría. Hay más gente de sangre española como yo, que vendría a ser "criollo". Obvio que también hay mestizos y originarios.

In Poland we call tomato - pomidor, probably because a lot of vegeatebles were brought to us by Bona Sforza from Italy : ) It's actually interesting how sometimes people speaking different roman languages don't understand each other. I know a bit of spanish (I've been studying it for quite some time, but don't use it that much) - I understand a lot from a different tv series - italian, spanish, portuguese, some french - even without the subtitles, I just see the similarities right away. To my defence I have it with all the languages (remember that english has at least 30% vocabulary from latin) : ) And I did have latin classes in HS, for 2,5 year : D

Tomates came from the Americas and are believed to have been small and yellow before the red one went to Italy so Pomodoro makes sense.
